To me, mustang mentality is "my mustang with x, y, and z mods is totally a better car than this other car" with the other car usually being considered superior by most non-biased parties.
The only statement that I was strongly disagreeing with was that the C7 would be out of place on the dragon. As the only one here who's driven both cars on the dragon, I think my opinion carries a little more weight in that discussion. Now whether you enjoy the Z or the C7 more depends on your preferences, but that doesn't mean either of them are out of place. Just a ridiculous statement IMO.
If you want a Giulia that's low slung and has 2 doors, why not look at the 4C? It's more similar to the Z than a Giulia. It's got that sexy Alfa look, more analog feel, and sports car dimensions. Seems like everything you're looking for. It's in the same price range as the C7 if your looking at new ones there. I thought about getting one too, but the desire for a V8 was too strong.

I totally agree about the dragon statement. Even the C6 GS would shred the dragon. But other than that. People are different in there tastes.... my bad for not getting what you're saying.
As far as the 4C... It's just claustrophobic in the sense there's no storage. The Z trunk is about yey perfect. I want my car to be daily driveable just a Lil. I really love the vette and the Alfa 4c. I want something sized right in between. It's been the hardest decision in terms of what to do. I conceptually love the 911 capabilities. but... I'm not the biggest fan of the style. Then there's The M2, another car that delivers great power and handling but, I'm also not a fan of the styling. Then throw in I'd be a "BMW owner".
So everything that I love in looks doesn't quite look right and cars that look right are lacking the type of experience I'm looking for. Lol.
But you're right.... the 4c is closest to that mark I'm looking for. Alfa is supposed to be coming out with a couple more coupes. Maybe they'll come out with a car that has quadrifoglio power and handling but with Z like dimensions I'm thinking of just trading for the 2015+ Nismo Z34 mod it n get a Giulia as well and call it a day.
To me, the selection out there is poor. The Cayman corvette and M2 are the most sensible to purchase but I don't want them. I know.... I'm a scrambled egg on this. When I see the Z concept, that WILL HELP my decision A LOT!!
